Default bryopsis ...
so i got some live rock from a fellow reefer and had some bryopsis on a couple of rocks i thought i scrubbed it all off , but I still see bits of it. Should i start dosing kent tech-m already and increase the mag level to kill it while its weak?

Just dip the whole rock in 1 part hydrogen peroxide to 4 parts tank water for 5-10 minutes and it'll kill any algae off

I ended up throwing out almost the entire contents of my tank last year because of bryopsis.

You've been warned.
